The Legacy of Xi'an Zealchon: Excellence in Engineering

🏗️

15+ Years of Mastery

Xi'an Zealchon Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. boasts over 15 years of civil engineering expertise. Located in Xi'an's high-tech hub, our 7,500 sqm facility is where precision meets infrastructure.

🎓

Academic Collaboration

Partnering with Chang'an University and Xi'an University of Technology, we integrate cutting-edge research into every Asphalt Aging Vacuum Tank and PAV system we manufacture.

🏆

Award-Winning Innovation

The "Xiya" trademark is synonymous with quality in Shaanxi Province, having earned national and ministerial awards for filling technological gaps in geotechnical and asphalt testing.

Information Gain Insight: Modern asphalt aging simulation isn't just about heat; it's about controlling oxidative kinetics. Our tanks utilize a "Dual-Phase Vacuum-Pressure" cycle that mimics 5-10 years of environmental stress in just 20 hours, a benchmark 15% more accurate than standard gravity-convection units.

Asphalt Aging Vacuum Tank: Technical Deep Dive

Oxidative Hardening Simulation

Asphalt binders undergo complex chemical changes. Our vacuum tanks are engineered to comply with ASTM D6521 and AASHTO R28, providing a pressurized environment (2.10 MPa) at elevated temperatures to simulate long-term field oxidative aging.

Precision Degassing (VDT Integration)

Post-aging, the binder contains entrapped air. Our Vacuum Degassing Tank (VDT) removes these bubbles at 170°C, ensuring that subsequent Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) tests are not compromised by air inclusions, providing a 99.8% pure sample.

Thermal Uniformity & PID Control

Using advanced PID algorithmic controls, we maintain temperature stability within ±0.1°C. This eliminates "hot spots" that cause localized over-aging, ensuring the "Pricelist" value reflects the highest laboratory reliability.

Technical Roadmap & Future Outlook (2025-2030)

🤖

AI-Driven Aging Prediction

We are currently developing neural networks that correlate real-time pressure fluctuations during the aging process with the final Bitumen Viscosity, allowing for predictive analytics before the test concludes.

🌍

Bio-Binder Adaptability

As the industry moves toward eco-friendly binders, our 2025 roadmap includes specialized vacuum modules designed to handle the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) unique to bio-based asphalt without degrading tank seals.

📱

Cloud-Synchronized Labs

Future iterations will feature IoT connectivity, enabling lab managers to monitor multiple aging cycles across global sites via a single dashboard, ensuring standardized quality control for multinational road contractors.

Macro Industry Solutions: Beyond the Machine

Resilient Infrastructure for Megaprojects

Large-scale projects like the "Belt and Road Initiative" require asphalt that withstands diverse climates. Our aging tanks provide the critical data needed to design asphalt mixes for the Gobi Desert or the humid tropics of Southeast Asia.

Circular Economy & RAP Optimization

Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is the future. Our technology helps labs determine the exact "rejuvenator" dosage required by simulating how old binder will age further once it's back in the road loop.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the primary difference between PAV and VDT?
A: The Pressure Aging Vessel (PAV) is used for the actual oxidative aging process (usually 20 hours at 2.1MPa). The Vacuum Degassing Tank (VDT) is used AFTER the PAV process to remove air bubbles from the thickened binder, which is essential for accurate rheological testing in a DSR.
Q: Does your equipment comply with AASHTO R28?
A: Yes, our Asphalt Aging Vacuum Tanks and PAV systems fully meet and exceed AASHTO R28 and ASTM D6521 standards. We provide calibration certificates upon request.
Q: How do I get a wholesale quote for multiple units?
A: You can contact our sales department through the inquiry form. We offer tiered pricing for 3+ units and specialized service contracts for university laboratories and government agencies.
Q: What is the typical lead time for international orders?
A: For standard units, lead time is 7-14 business days. For customized OEM units or high-volume orders, it typically takes 21-30 days to ensure full QC testing before dispatch.
Q: Do you offer local support in Southeast Asia or the Middle East?
A: Yes, we have a network of local distributors and technical partners who provide on-site installation, training, and annual calibration services.
